Some of the system call arguments have useful information; they're not just
pointing to a memory address.
Some are necessary in order to determine what syscall was performed. For
IPC syscalls, a0 indicates which of the IPC calls was executed.

System call arguments are pretty useless unless you're in a process where
the
memory addresses are still valid (like a testcase). Would it be useful to
put an option in at a later date that allows you to dump arguments as human
readable?
